Downloading Video from YouTube

January 22, 2009

‘We can’t get YouTube in school.  How can I download a video to use it?’  It is almost guaranteed that this question will be asked after using video in training or in schools.  Well thanks to Jenny Luca at Lucacept for passing on this fantastic resource because now you can use KickYouTube.

This is simplicity itself.  You find the video that you want and then in url box you type in kick before youtube.

You will then be offered a range of file types to save.  

I choose MP4.  Then go to the end of the row.

 

 

 

Once you have chosen where to store the download, it will just carry out the operation.  For playback I use RealPlayer or Quicktime.  It won’t playback in my version of Windows Media Player.

Enjoy!
